He wears a saffron-orange shawl wrapped over the shoulders and an orange top, with a long rudraksha mala of dark beads hanging across his chest. A red tilak mark is on his forehead, and his right hand rests on his chest. Small pink petals lie on the ground nearby. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, and rudraksha mala are the visible cues for this figure, who is standing in the scene with no one else present.2010-08-06July 20 20102010-07-20 +1 copiesA man in saffron-orange clothing stands in profile on a sandy, open ground with patches of grass and a white paved edge. He wears a sleeveless orange top and an orange wrap draped over one shoulder that flutters in the breeze, with a dark rudraksha mala around his neck. His dark hair is tied back in a knot, and a small white marking is visible on his forehead. He looks downward with one hand resting at his lower back.2010-07-19July 02 20102010-07-02 +1 copiesA man in a saffron-orange unstitched robe walks barefoot across a grey floor decorated with white kolam-style chalk designs of lotus and geometric patterns. He wears a long rudraksha mala across his chest and has a red tilak mark on his forehead; his hair is swept back. Behind him, a second man in white ritual dhoti and white upper cloth walks with bare feet. In the background are orange-painted shrines with floral garlands on a raised platform, grey statues on pedestals, small red signboards, a brass lamp on the ground, and an orange cushion on a paved area. The scene is an outdoor temple courtyard.A man stands in profile beside a red wooden pillar on a pale open floor. He wears a draped orange-saffron garment over one shoulder and an orange lower cloth, with a dark rudraksha mala around his neck. His long dark hair is swept back into a bun. A small mark is visible on his upper arm. He faces right toward another person partly visible at the edge of the frame. Such a man is a sannyasi in saffron dress, and the appearance is consistent with a person candidate given the saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and long swept-back hair, though identity is not established from the face.2011-02-05September 06 20102010-09-06 +1 copiesA man in a saffron-orange wrap stands outdoors on a dusty ground beside a white plinth draped with red and yellow marigold garlands. He wears a rudraksha mala around his neck and a red bindi on his forehead, one hand resting on his hip and the other at his chest. Around him are circular fire pits with white ash and rangoli-style chalk lines, a folded red-and-green mat, and a small brass plate. The setting suggests a pancha-tapas site, with fire pits arranged across the open ground.2010-07-19
